October 1 1975 - the world witnesses one of the most ferocious boxing matches of all time, as Muhammad Ali fought Joe Frazier in the fight billed: The Thrilla in Manilla. Forty years on, the former British boxer - Richard Dunn - remebers watching the fight on television. Little did he know, he would end up in the ring with Ali just a year later. However, before he got his chance in Germany, he was, like the rest of the world, captivated, as Ali locked horns with Frazier for the final time.
